Southern Tanzania
Formerly part of the Selous, Nyerere is Africa on a grand, uncrowded scale, threaded by the Rufiji River and its lakes.
Nyerere is one of the largest protected areas on the continent. Boat safaris, walking safaris and fly-camping are all possible here, which makes it a natural second safari for returning travellers.
